Well, it isn't quite that simple. You would think the the JDK1.4LE version would come with everything except that which the JDK1.4 already provides. That would be great but that's not the way it is treated. For instance, the full version of Tomcat comes with the commons-dbcp package. The LE version doesn't. commons-dbcp isn't exactly a JDK1.4 endorsed package. The same goes for a few other packages, but I'll let you look into what those are. For this reason, I download the full version. Plus, like I said before, some apps are written to require the Xerces parsers when they should, instead, be using the JAXP, DOM, and SAX interfaces to load parsers. Because of this and the fact that Xerces is being actively developed and Crimson isn't, I'll use Xerces over the Crimson parser included in JDk1.4.

What i understand is that a number of packages, especially xml related are already
standard in the JDK 1.4. The Tomcat full-edition has some overlap with these packages, and that the LE version has been cleaned out. So no overlapping packages anymore.
This seems very nice to me, as it keep control over the large number of packages used today.

One possible reason is that Jetspeed uses XML extensively and may, improperly, use a specific XML parser. In this case, I would guess it might specifically use the Xerces parser. the LE version of Tomcat doesn't come with Xerces. It should be using the Interfaces and use whatever parser is available. BTW, xerces, xalan, mail, and anything else with endorsed packages should *not* be in WEB-INF/lib. It violates the Sun classloading spec and causes lots of hard to debug classloader errors. Tomcat now attempts to avoid loading endorsed packages from the WebappClassLoader, but I recommend not putting that stuff there in the first place to, if nothing else, avoid confusion when things don't work and it looks like they should. Endorsed packages should be loaded via the shared classloaders or the boot/system classloader.
I actually recommend using the full version of Tomcat no matter what for any situation. I really don't have a clue why they ship an "LE" version. A smaller download maybe? In this day in age of broadband internet access, I don't see the reason?
